Registration for Fall Courses @ The Lab Continues!

Founded in 2001, the JBFC shows hundreds of films a year in our art house theater and has pioneered a unique approach to viewing and making media that is rooted in our commitment to visual literacy. In our classes at the Media Arts Lab, you’ll make your own projects, learn to enjoy movies in new ways, and spend time with some of the most interesting people around.

Our fall semester of Courses @ the Lab kicks off on September 7 with Creators’ Co-op, our program for high school students (Grades 9—12). Registration for Co-op continues through this weekend, with tons more courses available as the semester progresses! Read on for a few course highlights:
